To serve 85 people pasta salad, you typically want to plan on about 1/2 to 1 cup per person, depending on whether it's a side dish or the main dish. This means you would need approximately 42 to 85 cups of pasta salad. If serving as a side, aiming for around 60 cups would be a good estimate, equating to about 15 quarts total. Adjust quantities based on the overall menu and the appetite of your guests.
It depends if you only serve pasta salad or something else with it. When you serve only the pasta salad - I would use 6 packages ( 6 pounds ) of pasta, 6 tin peas, 24 tomatoes, 8 onions, 2 pounds ham, 6 tin corn, 3 red pepper. If you want to serve this to a bbq - I would recommend a quarter of the recipe above.
there is 1253 calories in a pasta salad with dressings.

"About two large spoon fulls is enough. And if you want crutons about 4-6 of them"
You have two options: make more pasta to add to the salad, and/or spoon out as much Miracle Whip as you can. There really isn't anything else you can do.
In my opinion, if your serving along side other food, you should assume 1 serving per person. One serving of pasta is generally 1/4 a cup of dry pasta. Therefore you should cook 17.5 cups of dry pasta, for your pasta salad.
